The congregation is attended by thousands of people from across the world every year.[2][3] After Dua of last day, groups (Tablighi Jamaat) are formed that go to different parts of the world to preach, and the process continues until the next Ijtema.[4]

History[5][edit]

In 2011 the congregation divided into two phases due to administrative and security reasons.[6][7]
